MS9500GL HD FrEND Plus User Guide Chapter 10: Data Transfer
Perform these procedures with any Windows based PC.
The MS9500GL “remote computer” and the computer containing .scn files for transfer (“local computer”) must be
connected to a network.
NOTE: Do not change the password to the hdclipftp user.
To Up-Load data with the DOS window:
1. Select Start/Run/ and type: cmd as shown; click OK
A window similar to the following should appear:
2. At the command prompt enter: ftp XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (where X…X is the IP address of the
MS9500GL from the Chapter 2: Player Configuration – LCD, Communications, Set IP Address). Press
Enter/Return.
3. Enter the User Name: ftpuser (case sensitive), press Enter/Return when prompted.
4. Enter your password: electrosonic (case sensitive), press Enter/Return when prompted.
5. IMPORTANT! Type binary in the command line and press Enter/Return. This ensures that data is
transferred to the MS9500GL correctly.
6. Type: dir in the command line, press Enter/Return. The application will display the contents (directory
structure) of the MS9500GL (D:\).
7. Type: CD Video or CD Scenes. The application will display the contents of the \Video folder or \Scenes
folder.
8. Type: put <path>\ and press Enter/Return to send a file from the local computer to the
current folder on the MS9500GL.
NOTE: MPEG video file sizes may be very large. The time taken to up-load will be dependent on the file
size as well as the bandwidth of your network connection. Check for the ‘Transfer Complete’ message as
shown above to ensure that your files have completely transferred to the MS9500GL before trying to play
them. XML files are relatively small and their transfer should happen almost instantaneously.
